Customized Rebranding and Digital Marketing Solutions in the Heavy Construction Industry
MSL’s Needs
Martinez Steel was acquired by new management and wanted a fresh start to reflect their latest product offerings, drive growth, and take a leadership position in construction and civil engineering. The refreshed brand needed to reflect strength, trust, and the quality of its work as a high-profile player in their sector.
The company’s leadership wanted to hire a marketing company with a talented team who could handle all facets of this multi-faceted project so they wouldn’t have to work with multiple vendors. When they started engaging with Andy Bush from Bush Marketing, a partnership developed that would take MSL in the direction it needed to go.
“Corporate rebrands can always pose significant challenges. However, when you partner with the right development team they can also reap huge rewards. We were excited at the opportunity to help MSL with integrated solutions that would help them reach their objectives.”
Bush Marketing’s Solution for MSL
After discussing the project with MSL, Andy presented the company with a detailed, easy-to-read proposal that listed the Bush Marketing solution , along with clear timelines and expectations.
Once the proposal was accepted, the Bush Marketing team got to work on the following tasks:
Brand Development
Our branding experts worked diligently to help establish the company’s new name, MSL, which was a streamlined acronym already used by the industry. The brand development phase also included a refreshed brand colour scheme and a new logo with a tagline that perfectly encapsulated the new direction.
Website Design & Development
Central to the successful rebrand was designing and developing a beautiful, fully functional website that reflected the new brand image. The website featured an easy-to-use menu for simple navigation, conversion-optimized calls-to-action, and efficient performance on both desktop and mobile, creating an exceptional customer experience.
Corporate Messaging & Content Writing
Our content team worked closely with MSL to craft messaging that aligned perfectly with the company’s values, mission, and goals. The customized content strategy included keyword-rich headings, leadership profiles, case studies, and MSL’s unique value proposition. All content was written in MSL’s refreshed brand voice, employing an authoritative, plain-language tone for maximum engagement.
SEO
The new website was completely optimized for maximum searchability, helping MSL garner sustainable web traffic and generate new customer leads.
Corporate Video
Bush Marketing produced a two-minute corporate video that highlights MSL’s services, projects, and mission. The production process included scriptwriting, on-screen text generation, colour correction, narration, and more. Watch the video here.
Digital Brochure
We also created two branded, full-colour digital brochures detailing MSL’s services, case studies, leadership profiles, and much more. The brochures employed bright, crisp imagery and condensed text for easy browsing.
Press Release
Our content team developed a compelling press release to announce the company rebrand, complete with leadership quotes, MSL’s story, and follow-up contact information.
Social Media
Bush Marketing revamped MSL’s entire social media presence on Twitter and LinkedIn with new accounts and a progressive growth strategy, including custom images, posts, and hashtag development. The posts are designed for maximum engagement and high visibility, helping to spread MSL’s unique service offerings across both channels.
"We’re very pleased and excited with the outcome and look forward to enjoying a long-term relationship with Bush Marketing.”
The Results
Bush Marketing delivered its corporate rebranding and digital marketing solution on time, within budget, and to the client’s total satisfaction. Everyone on the team exceeded expectations in both service levels and the quality of the work.

We’re thrilled that MSL is pleased with our work and look forward to helping them take a bigger share of the construction industry.”
